I'm pretty sure the filament of a 60-W bulb is thicker, since there is less resistance through a thicker filament, so less light and heat would be generated.

There are three bulbs of 600W 100W and 200W which bulb has thickest filament?

600w - the thicker filament has a lower resistance, which leads to a higher current and thus higher wattage


Which has the thickest filament - a high-resistance or a low-resistance bulb?

A high-resistance bulb typically has a thicker filament compared to a low-resistance bulb. The thicker filament in a high-resistance bulb can withstand the greater heat generated by the increased resistance, resulting in a longer lifespan for the bulb.


How does an 25w compact fluorescent bulb provides the same amount of light as a 100w filament bulb but use less electricity?

It uses modern technology to give better efficiency. A filament bulb has an incandescent (hot) piece of tungsten wire, which produces light but also heat. A fluorescent bulb uses a different process to produce more light and less heat.


Does a 100w light bulb use more electricity than a toaster?

It depends on the wattage of the toaster. If the toaster has a wattage greater than 100W, then it will use more electricity than a 100W light bulb. If the toaster has a wattage less than 100W, then the light bulb will use more electricity.


What is the difference in brightness between a 60W and 100W light bulb?

The 100W light bulb is brighter than the 60W light bulb. The difference in brightness is 40 watts.

How many lumens in a 100w light bulb?

A 100W incandescent light bulb typically produces around 1600 lumens of light.


Why 100w bulb appears brighter than 40w bulb placed at same distance?

The 100W bulb emits more light energy per second than the 40W bulb, so it appears brighter due to the higher intensity of light. This increase in brightness is a result of the higher power consumption and light output of the 100W bulb compared to the 40W bulb.
